Any prizes for consistency? 2pts a round apart from the hand where everyone scored 1

Is it going to be a battle between the 4 front-runners, or will the peloton get back in contention?

You'd be second. Iron has been the most consistent  |

Was disappointed you went for e4 and not d4 in this. How did you get on? Drew against the Dutch defence in a wild game. I play a few different openings (thin...and in before "badly") |

Walker's crisps adverts are bad enough, the ones with Lionel Richie are bloody terrible.

I thought a was 2 wrongs don't make a right. Some are very ambiguous imo.
Robin Hood is incred, I couldn't get that for my life. Damn edgascoigne stopping my ace.
Two wrongs don't make a right wouldn't make sense from the way the words were laid out. Good job you chose another one, shame it was the same one as Ed "Bury St Edmunds" Gascoigne went for. It's obviously "two wrongs don't make a right". |
